We welcome and applaud you for taking responsibility for your health by joining us in the exciting journey towards health and wellness through Chiropractic care

New Patient Centre

Grande Family Chiropractic is dedicated to placing patients first. We maintain a manageable patient volume with an emphasis on providing the highest quality care. We strive to improve quality-of-life and enjoy enabling patients to return to their prior level of activity. Our clinic is proud to offer several varied treatment techniques using the most advanced technology.

New patients are scheduled for appointments within 24 hours of calling

Patients do not spend their valuable time in the waiting room- you will be seen at the time you are scheduled

Only 1-2 patients scheduled per hour in order to facilitate adequate one-on-one, hands on care

Our clinic is centrally located in North Vancouver

Home exercise is a key component of our treatment method- we will give you everything you need to get better fast

Initial consultation: Your first appointment should take approximately 1 hour. In this time, you will:

Fill out a health profile questionnaire to help us get to know you

Discuss your health problems and goals with Dr. Akhavan

Be asked to share your medical history

Engage in a thorough physical examination

During the consultation, Dr. Akhavan will review your health history and perform standard physical, neurological, and chiropractic tests to determine the root cause of your symptoms. Based on these findings, he will then recommend a treatment program tailored to you.

Chiropractors are legislated as primary care providers and do not require a doctor’s referral. However, some extended health benefit plan insurance companies require a doctor’s referral for full reimbursement of physical therapy costs.

Every case varies depending on severity of the problem and how your body reacts to the treatment. You may require only one visit or ongoing care for a few months. You will be constantly evaluated by your therapist and will be provided with recommendations and possible additional treatment if required.

The list of things to do following a treatment varies greatly depending on the patient. Some may need to continue home exercises, some will need to get into the gym, and some will simply finish their treatment and return to daily activity.
